Guess Kumar should've stayed at White Castle... or at least the White House. Actor Kal Penn -- who recently spent a year working for the Obama administration -- was robbed at gunpoint early this morning in the District.

Penn claims a man carrying a gun approached him around 1:20 a.m. and took his wallet and other personal property.

A Metro Police report says that at 1:20 a.m., a male victim reported that while walking in the 1500 block of S St. N.W., a subject approached, showed him a handgun and ordered him to get down on the ground. The victim handed over his wallet and cell phone. A second suspect was standing nearby during the robbery; he was joined by the first suspect after the robbery.

One suspect was described a black male, age 23-27, 5'9" and 180 pounds, clean-shaven and having an average build.
